The Rookie Year

pass or fail

crash and burn

another painful lesson learned

so take it from me

you can't win this way

i'm thinking of how i can fill this hole in my chest

you know the one gasping and sucking dust

and i wonder how i'll feel

and i wonder where i'll go from here

i'm finding hope

i'm writing my anthem to this sixty cycle hum

you know the one

i'm moving forward

something you said

and your words hit just right

i'm moving forward

and you and i both know that this is not the easiest thing

meek and mild mannered me

throwing dishes in the sink

breaking bottles over heads of friends

or so to speak

it's the beginning of the end

i'm moving forward

something you said

and your words hit just right

i'm moving forward

i'm seeing things for once in a whole new light

i'm proving you right. and pulling teeth was never this much fun

i'm finding hope

i'm writing my anthem to this sixty cycle hum

you know the one
